Flour And Bread Mix

I currently use Pamela's mix for pancakes etc and Gluten Free Pantry for bread mix. My son now needs to be dairy and sugar free and I am looking for an all purpose mix and bread mix that taste good. Do you have any suggestions on those items? Thanks for your help.

I use Gluten Free Pantry French Bread Mix and use water. (the instructions say to use either milk or water--I'm sure a milk sub would work, too). The mix itself does not contain dairy. I think it's very good--I make a loaf probably every 2 weeks or so.

Jerseyangel - does it contain brown sugar? Their regular sandwhich bread contains brown sugar and my son really needs to limit his sugar.

I have a box right here--it contains: white rice flour, potato starch, corn starch, guar gum, granulated honey, salt, and a packet of yeast.

Domata flour has dextrin and I don't know how close to a sugar that is, but it is gluten-free and CF too. I like it quite a bit.

I also have a box of "nearly normal" flour here and it looks to fit the bill too. But it does have something called expandex in it and I don't know what the heck that is.

I have also ordered a box of better batter flour-- you might want to check that out too. I think they post the ingredients on Amazon.

Good luck!

Check out Annie's mixes. Not sure about the sugar content, but many of her breads are free of a lot of allergens including yeast. They are a bit pricey, but they are yummy.

I am dairy-free, soy-free, gluten-free and use Jules Gluten Free flour--it is the best all purpose flour I've tried and can be used 1-1 in your favorite recipes. Jules has a great cookbook too with tons of dairy free versions of her gluten-free recipes. My family orders it online: www.julesglutenfree.com and always has some on hand. (There's a great new graham cracker mix too!)

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin.  In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began developing serious vitamin-deficiency diseases: Beriberi → caused by a lack of thiamin (vitamin B1) Pellagra → caused by a lack of niacin (vitamin B3) Anemia → linked to low iron and lack of folate By the 1930s–40s, these problems were common in the U.S., especially in poorer regions. Public-health officials responded by requiring wheat flour and the breads made from it to be “enriched” with thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and iron. Folic acid was added later (1998) to prevent neural-tube birth defects. Why gluten-free bread isn’t required to be enriched? The U.S. enrichment standards were written specifically for wheat flour. Gluten-free breads use rice, tapioca, corn, sorghum, etc.—so they fall outside that rule—but they probably should be for the same reason wheat products are.

      Keep in mind that there are drawbacks to a formal diagnosis, for example more expensive life and private health insurance, as well as possibly needing to disclose it on job applications. Normally I am in favor of the formal diagnosis process, but if you've already figured out that you can't tolerate gluten and will likely stay gluten-free anyway, I wanted to at least mention the possible negative sides of having a formal diagnosis. While I understand wanting a formal diagnosis, it sounds like she will likely remain gluten-free either way, even if she should test negative for celiac disease (Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If her symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet, it would likely signal NCGS).

      Thank you all so much for your advice and thoughts. We ended up having another scope and more bloodwork last week. All serological markers continue to increase, and the doc who did the scope said there villous atrophy visible on the scope — but we just got the biopsy pathology report back, and all it says is, “Duodenal mucosa with patchy increased intraepithelial lymphocytes, preserved villous architecture, and patchy foveolar metaplasia,” which we are told is still inconclusive…  We will have her go gluten free again anyway, but how soon would you all test again, if at all? How valuable is an official dx in a situation like this?

      Thanks for this Russ, and good to see that it is fortified. I spend too much time looking for M&S gluten-free Iced Spiced Buns to have ever noticed this! That's interesting, Scott.  Have manufacturers ever said why that should be the case?
